Default Mail Merge from Excel for Envelopes only

i created a mail merge from excel data to a custom word document that is
7.25"w
x 5.25"h, the size of my envelope. Data came over fine.

Everything looks fine on the preview. When I go to print, I keep getting
the same envelope over and over. It will not move on to the next record. I
am sure that I am missing something very obvious, but I cannot figure this
out. Anyone out there have any ideas?

Thanks!

It sounds like you are not actually executing the merge, but just printing a
preview of the results.
